About This Tour
This isn’t your standard history walk with dry facts and a monotone guide. The Bloody Interesting Rocks Walking Tour brings Sydney’s gritty beginnings to life with dramatic storytelling, dark humour, and hidden corners most tourists miss. Led by a professional guide and former TV director, you'll hear true tales of convicts, corruption, sly grog, scandal, and survival — all where it really happened. You’ll also taste native flavours like wattleseed ANZAC cookies and lemon myrtle tea, and get the kind of commentary that turns a footpath into a stage. If you like your history raw, real, and wildly entertaining — this is the tour for you.

Additional Information
Meeting Point
Outside the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA), Circular Quay — harbour-side entrance of the white building. That’s the main entrance facing the water and Circular Quay, not the George Street side. If you’re looking at the Opera House, you’re in the right spot.
